Were you referring to my post regarding the Eurotek?

He was referring to my post about storage buildings. And he was right on one thing,the lot was full of trash. But I just happen to get lucky with that spill and it made me stay.

 

Roger. Thanks.

 

After I got my rig fixed, I went out and got a half dollar (and other stuff) Photo tomorrow. 20 half dollars make a roll. That's what I have.

 

Very nice,can't wait to see it. I didn't get to go to the spot I had researched. The land was posted and the house that sits on the land,noone was home. I'm going back to ask Monday, it's been snowing here like crazy,maybe 4 in.

 

If you are polite, most people don't care. As long as you are respectful and fill in the holes.

 

MLK Weekend Hunt. I got good signals on the rings, but I think it's because the batteries are fresh and they are plated over copper. Happy with the half dollar.
The nickel is 1951-D.

 

Considering the ground was almost frozen and it was a low gas expense local hunt, I was pleased with the results. The wheatie is a mangled 1952-D.

 

I saw a hawk today, so that was cool. One of the nickels is 1946-D but it's roached.

 

I just finished my hunt,wasn't very good but I had a nice time out. After all that cold it was a nice day.ill post some pics later,I'm still out.

 

That was a good hunt Mike, I have to get a better machine this one is just not cutting it. I'm missing a lot of stuff and I want to keep these sites clean.I've been looking everywhere for a good machine for a decent price and I just can't find one. But I'll get lucky and want to come my way I just have to be patient.

 

Yeah I was sick all week. I told my GF I don't care I am going out. They will have to take the detector out of my cold dead hand. I was feeling better today, about 90%. As for the hunt I used more gas in this one, 50% of my swag take.
However I went to a far spot at the end which I knew was going to be a beat, or it would have been almost 2/3 1/3 gas.

 

This is my 2nd wheat penny ever! There was a young head to. I think if I had a better machine I would have pulled more from this spot. But I'm happy to just get out.

 

Plenty of dimes. Every time you pull a dime, that's much better than digging 10 zinc cents. I usually let some zincs go if they are buried. If it's copper, it can be anything.

 

Yesterdays 1946-D that I pulled out of some sand.

 

I reached 2000 nickels in New Mexico, so I guess that's something.

 

That is something! I've found I think 3 the whole time I've been digging. One of them was in the hole with a buried soda can. I'm still learning everyday and I'm getting close I think.

 

I'm out right now and do I have something beautiful to show you later. My first silver coin and it's a beautiful piece.

 

This is my 1963 UN PESO. Dug this piece up today in Buffalo WV. When I started out metal detecting this is the type of thing I was after. Sometimes when I'm out there digging nothing but trash all day,this is what keeps me digging. HH all!!

 

10% silver, but it still counts. Nice one. A keeper for sure.
90% brass, but: The exact composition of those coins is .700 Copper, .100 Nickel, .100 Zinc and .100 Silver.
I dug up a peso from 1980. It was so beat up looking I thought it was ancient.
